Haley Atwell is Skye's mother! Her father didn't kill her, but gave her terminal amnesia.

"Born in a small Chinese village in Hunan Province, the child who would eventually become known as Skye was merely an infant when her parents butchered the entire village populace. It was speculated that the villagers were trying to protect the girl from her own parents, who were dangerously unstable sociopaths." from the wiki She's Chinese born. Everyone wins.

That was a weird clip to choose as a promo for the Agent Carter show but I liked Agents of SHIELD even when goons said it was warmed over poo poo so I'll probably like the show anyway.

I couldn't agree more. I just did a rewatch of the first season with my girlfriend who hadn't seen the show and honestly don't get why this show is so reviled. I'm not saying there weren't weak episodes here and there, but for the most part the show was solid.

Nerdrage - Nerdrage is both the emotion felt when a nerd is exposed to something that directly contradicts the core beliefs of their obsession, and the reactionary diatribe by the nerd that inevitably follows.

I came late to Community, blowing through season 4 in a day or 3 and not really getting the hate there either. Season 4 wasn't as good as previous seasons but still had funny moments.

First of all, I don't think anyone (reasonable) thought that the first half of season 1 was unmitigated poo poo. I think most people agree that it was just really, really boring and instead of being a fun show about SHIELD agents/spies it instead was just a boring version of Fringe with a bunch of super cliche, uninteresting characters that weren't getting any development. Oh and the first 16 episodes took six months to air. There were constant breaks, some of which lasted 2-3 weeks, which made sticking with a boring show with a glacial pace that didn't really seem to be going anywhere pretty hard. There was a Christmas break, a break for the Olympics, a break for sweeps, and then like two more random breaks that had to be thrown in so the show would sync up with the release of the Winter Soldier. Episode 10 aired on December 10th. Episode 16 aired in April. Imagine having to wait all that time only to watch episodes like the one where the awful evil general mastermind character sits in an empty warehouse eating steak before everyone has a poorly-choreographed, slow, unexciting fight. Yeah, it wasn't pretty. Thank god the show got way better.

I also marathoned the first season on bluray. Maybe that's the difference.

BreakAtmo posted:I wouldn't be shocked if this is in fact one of the major reasons for Agent Carter's existence. It's the whole reason for it being the mid season split. That said it exists because of the awesome agent carter short. If not for that they would have just had a long mid season break I'd guess. A single, long break makes sense and disrupts things far less than several one and two week gaps.

I'm not convinced the scheduling hurt ratings as much as most people think - the ratings reached a plateau with the winter finale in December, and the scheduling didn't start getting weird until the following month. But as a viewer, obviously, what they're doing with S2 and Agent Carter is way better. I'm also not sure any of the breaks were actually there for the sake of TWS, as opposed to simply not having enough episodes in a 22-episode season to fill that entire period - there was at least one recent interview, IIRC, where Whedon/Tancharoen said that the timing (in terms of which episode) TWS would hit was still in flux fairly late in the season, and that they needed the network to set the schedule before they could determine how to write it.
